like i said before, just wait until you are in this for another 3 months! seems like your lifestyle is changing and you are making it happen!

Honestly as everything stands I would say that is ok. It's about 70% of your mhr and as you are doing HIIT I would stay with it. Interesting to see if your HRM has the same reading as you/cardio machines say!Quote:

Day 43 - Thursday Weekly Stats
Weight 209 Started log at 228 Total lost 19lbs This week lost 2lbs
Waist 38 3/4" Started at 41" Total lost 2 1/4" 1/4" this week
Bioimpedance body fat (forgot to do first thing in AM, supposedly drinking water skews results--maybe tomorrow AM)
good job there al ;)
Thanks, As you know I thought this week I was not going to get any weight loss. Glad I listened to you guys and stuck with the program.
Were you measuring your waist every week when you were up there in weight? Last 2 weeks only 1/4 inch. I know the waist will be my last fat stronghold but was hoping I'd get steady loss there.
Ah you see, maybe we do know what we are on about. Some of the time at least. Well done mate.
The fat will come off relatively equally across your body. Because you/we/men usually hold more on our stomachs it always seems as though it is barely shifting. But it is.

4 sets seated cable rows
4 sets wide grip pull downs

Nice al, how you feeling/looking so far compared to day 1?

Hey Johnnny, feeling good. By the end of the week I am completely drained but progress is good. I have 6 weeks till i go on vacation and I will try to go the distance staying strict on diet and training. Hope you are on coarse as well. See you've had a bit rain in your area.

i tell u al ur cardio schedule is makn me tired! reminds me of mine in the beginning :) funny how as u lean out the first thing to be reduced is the amt of cardio.. of course it took me 5months to do that :)
Al, how are your weights in the gym? Getting heavier?
Most of this post upsets me. I log everything. Not because I want to look back weeks/months but so I can at least look back on last weeks workout and try and beat reps or weight or technique.Quote:
